This example demonstrates horizontal linear meters in different orientations.<br><br>
In a horizontal linear meter, the scale labels can be positioned above the meter scale or below it. This is controlled by the last argument to <a href="LinearMeter.setMeter.htm">LinearMeter.setMeter</a>, which can be <a href="Chart.Top.htm">Top</a> or <a href="Chart.Bottom.htm">Bottom</a>,<br><br>
The title and value readout added using <a href="BaseChart.addText.htm">BaseChart.addText</a> can be put at any position. In this example, we put them at the opposite side to the scale labels.
